For trailer wiring for your 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek you would want the Curt wiring harness part # C56040. It will connect to the install port that is in the rear cargo area of your vehicle.

I attached an install video that shows how this would be done on a very similar 2014 XV Crosstrek.

The Curt hitch part # C13135 that you referenced has also been confirmed as a fit for your vehicle as well. I attached a video for you to check out that shows this hitch getting installed as well.

If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
